Interplay between Chebyshev and Jones polynomials analyzed
New algebraic perspective on knot invariants provided
Abstract
We recover the Jones polynomials of knots and links from the K-theory of a cluster C*-algebra of the sphere with two cusps. In particular, an interplay between the Chebyshev and Jones polynomials is studied.
